I shoot 55 P/N and scan on my Epson V700 - works a treat. The quality id very high and the negative is very fine grained. The film itself is supposed to be Panataomic-X which was a wonderful high resolution film. Your best bet is to expose the film, remove from he holder leaving the lever in the load position and develop after you get back from your trip. Also you can remove the film from the packet and develop just like regular sheet film While the prints are OK scanning the negative is way, way better Mike _____ From: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of markleewebb Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 10:06 PM To: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Digital BW] Scanning Polaroids Anyone shoot Polaroids with a 4x5 and then scan them??? Is the quality high? Or, do you use the Polaroid film that also produces negatives, and just scan the negatives? I was thinking about scanning the positive print Polaroids because I've heard those Polaroid films that produce the negatives create a kinda messy negative, and if I'm 4 miles out in the desert hiking a trail, or in field for several days/ a week the negatives could be a problem, so just using the positives and scanning them later sounded like a viable option. I am just wondering if anyone does this, and how much resolution you lose if you scan the positive Polaroid prints? . <http://geo.yahoo.com/serv?s=97359714/grpId=3702311/grpspId=1705019182/msgId =91178/stime=1205557560/nc1=5008815/nc2=3848607/nc3=4507179> [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
